====== Private Message ======
The Synchronet Private Message Module ([[http://cvs.synchro.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/exec/privatemsg.js|privatemsg.js]]) may be used to replace the hard-coded Ctrl-P global-hot key functionality of the [[server:Terminal]] server. The main advantage over the hard-coded Ctrl-P handler is the easy invocation of the [[sbbsimsg|Inter-BBS instant message]] module. Additionally, this module may be easily customized or modified to suit your needs. If you plan to modify this module, it is recommended that you copy it to your ''[[dir:mods]]'' directory first and modify the copy.

Example prompt displayed when this module is invoked (e.g. via the Ctrl-P key while logged-into the BBS):
<file>
Private: Telegram, Message, Chat, Inter-BBS, or Quit:
</file>

===== Install =====

The ''privatemsg'' module is now the default value for SCFG->System->Loadable Modules->Private Msg, so needs no manual installation.
